17. Impact of WDP in Gujarat A study ‘Who Benefits from Participatory Watershed Development? Lessons From Gujarat, India’, conducted by Dr. Amita Shah in 2001 A large proportion (70 per cent) of farmers reported an increase in soil moisture Significant increase in the irrigated area (i.e. 100% increase) With increased irrigation, the gross cropped area has also increased Overall positive impact on crop productivity 87 per cent of the households reported that the project has improved drinking water facilities The total net returns (from all crops combined) to households has increased by 63 per cent

18. Impact of WDP in Gujarat (cont..) A Rapid assessment study conducted by DSC in 2007-08 in Gujarat (as part of the national study conducted by ICRISAT) found the following: Increase in cultivable land: 25% to 50% Increase in soil moisture: 33% Improvement in sources of irrigation: More than 50% Change in cropping pattern: Between 25% to 50% Employment creation
